Encouraging Doubt and Dialogue: Documentation as a Tool for Critique
Donovan, Maggie; Sutter, Cheryl J.
Language Arts, v81 n5 p337 May 2004
The way in which the culture of ethnography has been developed in classrooms that encourages teachers and students to question, doubt, reflect, revise and remain open to new possibilities, is discussed. Through the documentation of interactions and talks between teachers and students, a critical examination of the teachers and capabilities and students learning abilities is possible.
